anyone knows what is considered high or low rolling resistance values for a car? I got this data sheet from the dealer after they tested my car... the rear rolling resistance seems out of whack but they are claiming it is normal...

Front Left = 290N Brake Force = 2320N
Front Right = 310N Brake Force = 2140N

Rear Left = 750N Brake Force = 1750N
Rear Right = 930N Brake Force = 1690N

the rear rolling resistance seems too high and have almost a 20% differential...

can anyone help?

i am not concerned about the brake force... i am more concerned about the rolling resistance

Rear Left = 750N
Rear Right = 930N

the back has almost 2times the rolling resistance of the front...

the left and right rolling resistance has 200 N difference... anyone know if it is normal?

I bet if you look at the specs of the car u will find the same ratio of weight front to back.

those numbers are what I would expect based on normal car weight distribution.

given the same tire, tire wear, air pressure - the rolling resistance should be proportional to the weight distribution.
